Abstract
The effect of supplemental light such as metal, Na and fluorescent lamp on the growth and productivity of tomato for 5 hours a day The growth rate of tomatoes under artificial light were increased 6~10% rather than the growth rate of tomatoes under no light treatment. Also the quantity and productivity of tomatoes under artificial light were increased rather than the quantity and productivity of tomatoes under no light treatment. Increasing profitability per 10a under artificial light were 9.4~28.2 million won.
